HC Deb 04 December 1916 vol 88 c666W
Mr. C. HARMSWORTH

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in combing out hitherto exempted men, he will have regard to the importance of exempting such a proportion of the whole-time and part-time firemen of military age employed in the fire brigades of the country as shall be adequate to the maintenance of the brigades in a state of efficiency?

Mr. FORSTER

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer given on 9th November to the hon. Member for East Herts.
